An earthwork bank, up to 4.5 metres in width and 112 metres long, is visible on aerial photographs from 1955 and on images derived from lidar data captured between 2005 and 2012. It follows the contour closely, and is interpreted as the remains of a field boundary bank of medieval or post-medieval origin. No boundary is depicted in this location on the Tithe Map, suggesting that it was disused by the mid-19th century, perhaps as a consequence of the development of the road immediately to the north.
